I am in desperate need of help!!

My partner has just been recently diagnosed with Coeliacs and we are struggling to adjust.

We have bought a bread machine do that I can make bread that he can eat and hopefully cut down on costs but the recipies that i have tast awful!

Does anyone have a bread receipe that does NOT require a bread mix as I want to make it from scratch.

ANy help is extremely greatfully received.

Thank you in advance!!

Bette Hagman's Gluten-Free Gourmet Bakes Bread cookbook was a big help when I was starting out. Everything is from scratch.

Hi Katie,

I have a bread recipe that is the closest thing to wheat bread in taste, texture and mouthfeel.

.

You can happily eat it witout spreading anything on it,

it doesn't need to be refreshed,

it will keep in an air-tight container on the counter for 3 - 4 days,

in the fridge for more than a week and

can be refreshed from the freezer anytime.

.

It bends like wheat bread it tears like wheat bread,

I recently gave a sample to the Head Lecturer in the Bakery College of Ireland,

the response I got back was, he thought it was very good and wants to use the recipe in one of his lectures.

Alternately you can copy and paste this address to my Blog, and then in the tags on the right hand side click breads

this will bring up all my gluten-free from scratch bread recipes.

I haven't tried using a bread maker, but I'm very happy with the quality of bread from Annalise Roberts' book Gluten Free Baking Classics So far, I've only tried the Italian bread, but it's such a world of difference from the pre-made cardboard I've been eating that I've made 3 loaves of it already!

Oh - I see she has a new book on bread machine baking:

I haven't seen it yet, but I'd definitely recommend it based on Gluten Free Baking Classics.

Something else to consider is the ingredients. I had trouble finding Millet flour at my local health food store (which is pretty good, but somewhat expensive for a lot of the other ingredients I've been using). They did have whole millet, so I've been grinding that in my Vitamix, but that's not a great solution.

This afternoon, I visited an (Asian) Indian grocery store, and found both Millet flour and Sorghum flour, for about $1.50/lb each, which is dirt cheap compared to the health store prices.

The Millet flour is called Bajri, and the Sorghum flour is called Jawar.

I also visited a Chinese Grocers, and found (white) rice flour (which appears to be a finer grind than I've been getting from the health food stores), potato starch, and tapioca flour.

The Chinese grocer also carries a wide variety of rice noodles.

I hope this helps. I thought I'd never eat good tasting bread again without getting sick, and am ecstatic to find out I was wrong.

The only problem I seem to be having is sourcing some of the ingredients.

I am in the UK so i odnt think we sell some of them, but i will try my best :o)

      Daughter has started gluten free diet this week as per gastroenterologists suggestion. However says she feels more tired and like she’s been hit by a train. I suggested it could be the change to gluten free or just stress from the endoscopy last week catching up with her. Just wondering if feeling more tired is a normal reaction at this stage. I suppose it’s possible some gluten might have been present without realising. Have tried to reassure her it’s not going to resolve symptoms overnight

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.
